You should have more porridge and skip the toast. I have a huge bowl of porridge for breakfast and don't eat lunch. I'm too full up.

I am not very keen on fruit I prefer vegetables I do eat it occasionally but not as much as I should I am really going to try and go without the bread and like you have suggested not buy it, but instead buy crispbreads and rice cakes
i have a largish bowl of porridge every single day and wouldnt dream of eating anything else. By lunchtime I have to force something down me as I'm still full up, no kidding. So not much bread in my diet.
Switch to wheat free bread, it's so much better for you.
Plus, at nearly £3 a loaf, you'll be sure to eat far less! :-)

They are delicious.
Just remember that in order to use up the energy consumed in a large loaf, you simply have to run a marathon, so, one slice is equivalen to a 1mile run. Now what is more appealing , going without a slice of bread or running a mile? :o)
At 10.30am try a cup of coffee and or a handful of raisins or a walk or a yoghurt. Just need to break the habit of eating bread and the body will soon adapt.

I gave up bread during a detox and food elimination. I now know that bread makes me feel worse. I have gluten free cereal (or oat) for breakfast, lunch can be millet bread (toasted) and cashew nut butter or soup, or microwave lentils/ tuna or mackerel and buckwheat crackers. You could have pasta salad or toasted rye bread. It's more expensive so you buy less. You could have cold chicken and salad with chopped up little potatoes. Once you bread the habit and try different foods you soon lose the taste for bread. If I have bread now I feel really heavy and get indigestion, and slow right down. That's not a good sign, is it?! Try having soup as a starter for dinner then you'll be fuller and won't need bread on the side.
fruitsalad, I know exactly what you mean (and your name now makes me laught if you say you don't like fruit!)

I love bread - but it's just not good for me and I know it contributes to my weight. You have to stop eating it with your evening meal - it's really not necessary. Bread is a habit (tell me about it) - I'd often get a slice of bread and butter about now in the evening, just because I felt like it. Felling "hungry" is a habit too - you don't have to eat when you are hungry. Get walnuts, pumpkin seeds, non-fatty nuts - carrots to chew on, anything like that. Make sure you are drinking enough too - I know I don't - and the body sometimes says it's hungry when what it really needs is a drink. You don't need bread every day - I'm beginning to wean myself off it.
I've never heard of having bread with your dinner, apart from with a first course.
